Verbal Violence

Famous quotes containing the words verbal and/or violence:

“Language fails not because thought fails, but because no verbal symbols can do justice to the fullness and richness of thought. If we are to continue talking about “data” in any other sense than as reflective distinctions, the original datum is always such a qualitative whole.”
—John Dewey (1859–1952)

“It was the first female-style revolution: no violence and we all went shopping.”
—Gloria Steinem (b. 1934)
